[00:54] <_unreal_> hum [00:54] Hi, I have a problem. When I try to use menus, the mouse cursor goes behind the menubar (invisible). When click "under" a menu header, it does as if I press left arrow repeatedly (moves to menus to the left of where I clicked) and it moves the mouse cursor on its own. When I put the cursor where the dock is, it appears through the dock instead of in front of it. It only happens sometimes, but when it does, I have to logout to revert to normal. Any ide [00:54] as ? [00:55] <_unreal_> the thign I do know is my brother gave me this laptop because his wife couldnt use it,k it kept shutting off [00:55] <_unreal_> I'm running ubuntu and its 10x more stable then when running win7 [00:55] <_unreal_> I'm wondering if the error has something to do with whats cuasing it to crash in windows [00:56] _unreal_: Overheating ? Might try a good general blow-out of all the dust . [00:57] After much long consideration and self debate I have decided I am flat out SICK of WINDOZZZZZE - so I am in the process of clearing out space on my main hard drive to set up a dual boot scenario ( need time to get to truley learn linux before I domp MICROSCAM all togeter) - I am going to Use Ubuntu - my only consideration at this point is going to be which version - so I am asking for advice. (more to come) [00:58] /window top [00:58] oops [00:59] RudeViper: 14.04 [00:59] RudeViper: and stop the ms stuff [00:59] ;) [01:01] anyone here maintain any software projects? [01:01] roundcircle, that is what I am going to use - I am just wondering about the destop - not a fan of Unity - which of the other three XFCE KDE LXDE would be the easiest to get started with - most of the documentation I see focuses on Unity for obvious resons [01:02] rgb-one: what if? [01:02] That's crazy talk! [01:03] RudeViper: Depends on the resources available to you and what you want out of your machine. [01:03] RudeViper: my favourite is gnome 3 [01:03] bekks: I would be grateful if you could impart some of your knowledge on the daily activities involved with administering and maintaining a repository. [01:03] !offtopic [01:03] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [01:04] rgb-one: I am running quite a few SVN repos for different purposes. So whats you actual Ubuntu related question about it? [01:04] RudeViper: rypervenche and which style you like [01:04] bekks: No Ubuntu related question. [01:04] dual core processor - 4gb ram - 55ti nvidia graphics card - so resources aren't a problem I would think - which is easiest to learn with - I have messed with all of them that I mentioned but not enough to know which is really good for the beginner [01:05] RudeViper: you can try and then work with the one that suits you [01:05] hey guys, is there a release/beta for ubuntu desktop with the kernel that [01:05] ok - btw - that last drive crashed - the one I wanted the check run on [01:05] RudeViper: I would look at some screenshots online for each DE and see which one you like the best. As far as resources go, KDE and Gnome will use up the most, then Xfce, then lxde. Lxde is very light, but lacking in features/beauty. [01:05] doesnt require a reboot [01:06] brent: u cant update the kernel without a reboot [01:06] brent: If you are upgrading to a new kernel -- then you will always need to reboot in order for that kernel to be used. [01:06] RudeViper: I say go with XFCE. Straightforward solid desktop, plenty customizable, mature, easy. [01:06] RudeViper: I prefer Xfce out of all of those you named. But it should be a decision that you research. [01:06] MarkRogers - ok thanks [01:07] im on 14.04, which still requires reboots after updates etc. I heard there is a kernel release that allows updates without rebooting [01:07] RudeViper: i myself prefer the ubuntu main release, its more resource heavy but i like the design [01:07] brent: Updating packages don't require reboots, but if you are upgrading something major -- for instance-- a kernel -- then you would have to [01:07] brent: Which is untrue. You need to run Oracle Linux 7 at least for patching your kernel at runtime. [01:08] brent: no, and u only have to reboot for updates that r updating something that is in use while the operating system is running [01:08] RudeViper: Beginner tutorials : http://blog.jdpfu.com/2014/12/28/learning-linux . Takes time and useage to decide on the DE that "you" prefer - mine is XFCE . [01:08] thanks for that link [01:08] RudeViper: KDE is my secondary preference [01:09] Gnome looks nice but i've had problems with bugs [01:09] Gnome 3 that is [01:10] I have a great deal of unfavorable things about gnome3 - if I go the gnome route - I would prefer to stay with gnome2 [01:10] ok, i was just hoping that there was a way to have my ubuntu desktop up 24/7 without having to reboot on important updates. I remember reading a while a go that something (kernel?) had an update that allowed the system to never have to reboot. I can't remember what linux it was. [01:12] brent: You never need to reboot, just like you never need to update. Updates are optional and only needed when you have a need to update. e.g. security or bug fixes to particular applications/libraries you use regularly. [01:13] RudeViper, I go for unity since I mainly use a laptop and I have plenty of width but not enough height on my screen, and unity uses a side panel. [01:13] brent, what you might have heard is that systemD had that feature, updates will be plugged in live [01:14] RudeViper: Gnome2 does not exist anymore. Check out the Desktop Environment part of http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ultimate-linux-guide-for-windows-users.html [01:14] mate desktop is the closest gnome2 look on gnome3 [01:14] lasko, it seems then i have misinterpreted [01:15] RudeViper, also you might not know but you can have lxde, xfce, and unity all installed and just pick which one each time you want. Right now I'm on a laptop originally installed as lubuntu but with ubuntu packages installed and I'm logged in using unity, so it's like I'm using ubuntu. [01:17] hey guys, newbie here, anybody know how to use the crouton ubuntu installer for the chromebook? If so, I just installed trusty to a flash drive, it finished with "Done! You can enter the chroot using enter-chroot." Just wondering how to properly use this little beast now, dI dont think its bootable, do I use enter-chroot in the shell in developers mode? I dont want to break anything, I took me a long time to get this far. [01:18] crouton isn't supported here, as it's a hack [01:18] plenty of guides online with how to install things on chromebooks that don't quite belong there :) [01:24] <_unreal_> Bashing-om, already tried blowing out dust.

[02:20] Neldogz: where do you see machine1.home [02:23] Neldogz, /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts [02:24] Neldogz, man hostname [02:26] pavlos, where is .home being set? [02:27] Neldogz, I dont know, I just gave it a hostname upon install, no dot home [02:28] pavlos, so did i.. yet it's coming up on the network as machine1.home [02:28] looking in the resolv.conf file it appears a search suffix is added in there of home [02:28] but since we cant edit this file by hand.. where can we? [02:29] Neldogz: where are you seeing it come up as .home [02:29] Ben64, try pinging your own host name and add a .local [02:29] or .home [02:29] hi [02:30] Neldogz: doesn't work [02:30] Neldogz, you can just type hostname mynewhostname, then reboot [02:30] pavelz: very astute. The client would initially be sent an IP on a dynamic basis with which to register it on the network. Once its on, I'm done with the 'dynamic' part. Making it static from that point on. [02:30] MonkeyDust, I'll try there as well, thanks [02:30] you don't even have to reboot [02:30] if you do change your hostname though, be sure to change it also in /etc/hosts [02:32] Geo, I assume by pavelz you mean my name ... this is more a networking issue, you can actually 'lock' an ip using the mac address.

Just runs really quickly and then locate doesn't find new files. [02:56] reinstalled ubuntu here ... 14.04 this time (since its LTS) ... seems slower (unity overall) ... pondering on switching or not [02:56] (what version i mean) [02:57] xmetal: you might need to install graphics drivers, or you can try another desktop, like gnome-fallback, xfce, kde, lxde...etc [02:57] unity is pretty bad/slow [02:58] emjac, I usually prefix/suffix with date, in my system it takes 3-4 seconds and I'm able to locate files [02:58] really without installling anything extra (say drivers) ... on my system anyway .. 14.10 seemed faster overall than 14.04 [02:58] Unity ...really has grown on me [02:59] I like unity, but I have an 8 core processor so no speed issues [02:59] xmetal: like a disease? :D [02:59] emjac: pastebin "locate -S; touch ~/testfilefoo; sudo updatedb; locate -S" [02:59] like cancer [03:03] anyone here use gnumeric?

I used sudo make install [03:33] um i have no clue sorry im pretty much a newb at linux :P [03:33] I don't know on the amd question, sorry [03:35] datahead8888 mrnorrisman if you both wait around a bit you should get your questions answered [03:35] Will do! :P [03:35] datahead8888: it shouldn't matter where it goes, and you should really avoid compiling stuff whenever possible. there are tons of packages available in the ubuntu repositories, and even more available from PPAs [03:35] mrnorrisman you should elaborate on the problem though [03:36] Ben64, I'm compiling a library from source, and I can see while debugging that the second app I'm working on that uses it is looking in the other directory [03:36] When I build the library, it goes to /usr/local/lib [03:36] yeah thats normal, but you should really find a PPA or find the library in the normal repositories [03:36] When I build the app I'm going to work on (with cmake) it looks in the /lib directory - I can see this because I told it to print the include variable it has [03:37] sounds like a bad app then [03:37] I got the app from someone else in a university research lab - he had built it on Windows, but the library has been used by several people [03:38] Well basically I am trying to use the AMD catalyst drivers instead of the open-source ubuntu ones... But when I finally got the drivers "installed" when i reboot the system it was stuck at the splash screen and I had to run in recovery mode then remove the catalyst drivers :/ [03:38] I would assume there's some way to tell Ubuntu to use or not use the /usr directory while installing [03:39] using /usr is the proper way, the application is in the wrong by not looking in normal places for libraries, also please look for it in the repositories i mentioned!!! [03:39] datahead8888, this may help? ./configure --prefix=/your/path $$ make && make install [03:39] where /your/path is where you want to install your program. [03:40] I doubt this stuff in in the repositories (though the library is in github) [03:40] datahead8888: stop doubting and start looking [03:43] datahead8888, did you try using that ./configure --prefix-/your/path $$ make && make install thingy i mentioned? [03:44] I wasn't sure what it would do if I did that; I was first looking for a repo as Ben64 suggested [03:44] I'd need to know what path to put for prefix -- / ? [03:46] isnt the path /lib? [03:47] I need includ files to go to /include and libraries to go to /lib [03:47] Sorry, I should have been more specific [03:47] there is no /include [03:47] indeed, you are correct [03:48] I need to look into configuring the library that I built to change its install directories [03:48] what library is it [03:48] This one: [03:48] https://github.com/GRAVITYLab/OSUFlow [03:49] gl with that [03:49] gl?

[04:57] probably [04:57] if there are security updates, yes [04:58] if you specifically mean 12.04 iso you could instead download 12.04.2 [04:58] 12.04.5 I mean, don't know what point release is 12.04 at [04:58] if you don't want it to update right away... after bootup, click network-manager icon... edit connections... wired connection 1 > and uncheck 'connect automatically' [04:59] cyberpolice: sudo parted -l will show you what what type of partitions they are [04:59] cyperpolice: are you the police?

[06:48] Keags:Yes ofcourse [06:49] bojan: Ok i only run server never use desktopmanager so i wont be able to help you with that [06:50] Keags:Ok thank u [07:01] Is it possible to chage the directory grub-efi installs it's bootloader into? My Sister's toshiba laptop has a shitty UEFI implimentation and will only boot if the file is located in a very specific directory.
